Frequently Asked Questions

We’ve answered the most common concerns from timelines and tax clearance to remote liquidation. Whether you're a local entrepreneur or an overseas shareholder, these FAQs will help you navigate the process with confidence

How long does company liquidation take in the UAE?

Mainland liquidation typically takes 6–8 weeks due to newspaper publication and multi-department clearance. Free Zone closures are faster usually 2–4 weeks.

Can I liquidate my company if it has debts or unpaid dues?

Yes, but all liabilities must be settled before final deregistration. Our team helps you manage settlements and obtain necessary clearances.

Is VAT deregistration mandatory during liquidation?

Absolutely. If your company is VAT-registered, you must file final returns and obtain FTA clearance before closure.

Do I need a licensed liquidator for my company?

Yes, for mainland entities. Free Zone companies may not require one, but appointing a liquidator ensures smoother compliance.

Can I close my UAE company remotely from abroad?

Yes. With a Power of Attorney and proper documentation, overseas owners can complete the entire process without traveling.

What’s the difference between liquidation and quick cancellation?

Liquidation is a full legal closure with clearances and reports. Quick cancellation applies to dormant companies with no liabilities or operations.
